Game summary, how to play
No-bust blackjack closely resembles ordinary Blackjack in terms of strategy and simplicity. The game uses a six-deck shoe. Each deck has 52 cards and up to four Jokers. All cards are dealt face up except for the Dealer/Player's hole card (each player is a dealer, in turn). Each player is dealt two cards and may 'hit' (draw additional cards). Cards are dealt clockwise, starting from the first seat position, with the Dealer/Player receiving his/her cards last. Two aces on the first two cards, two jokers or a joker and card valued as 10, is the equivalent of Blackjack.
The object of the game is to form a hand whose sum does not exceed a Natural (see below) and whose value is greater than the Player/Dealer's hand. You do not bust if you go over 21.
